Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a catch system for a gradual bi-directional safety device for elevators. This is, it relates to a system that allows braking against the elevator guiderails, both in an upwards and downwards direction.
  • the present invention is characterised by the elements comprising the catch system, which consists of a set of hinged rectangular frames in combination with a roller, so that when the guiderail is pinched the roller does not mark the guiderail much.
  • the present invention is characterised in that it allows using the hinged rectangular frames, which support the mobile shoe, on both sides of the guiderail.
  • the present invention lies within the field of systems or means used for braking elevators against their guiderails, both in an upwards and downwards direction, known in the field as safety devices.
  • Some prior safety devices of elevators are based on the use of a fixed clamp and a mobile clamp and require means for releasing the mobile clamp.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a catch system for a gradual elevator that allows bi-directional braking, both in an upwards and downwards direction, wherein said braking takes place so that the mark left on the guiderails by the rollers is as small as possible, since after a certain time they stop acting and no longer mark the guiderail during braking.
  • the invention taught for a catch system for a gradual bi-directional elevator safety basically consists of a roller set and a hinged rectangular frame disposed both above and below the location of the roller.
  • the catch process begins with the displacement of' the roller until it meets one of the two hinged rectangular frames, during which process the roller will mark the guiderail.
  • the hinged rectangular frame will move gradually, increasingly pressing against the guiderail. The displacement of the frame will continue until it meets the block assembly, at which time the mobile shoe will brake against the guiderail instead of the roller.
  • the mobile shoe of the hinged rectangular frame will therefore brake the elevator guiderail in combination with a fixed shoe.
  • the aforementioned frame is comprised of a mobile shoe, joined to a friction element to form an assembly on which are pins joined to corresponding rotation cams at one end, and joined at their other end to rotation hinges.
  • This catch system allows to prevent the rollers from marking the guiderails, as these only mark the guiderail at the start, until the hinged rectangular frames jut out more and catch the guiderail.
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective front view of the inside of the catch block for the safety device object of the invention.
  • Figure 2 shows the successive stages from a) to e), showing the catching process involved.
  • Figure 3 shows an alternative embodiment based exclusively on the use of hinged rectangular frames.
  • Figure 1 shows the elements involved in the catch system for a bi-directional gradual safety device, allowing to identify the block (1) that houses all the catch elements, the base of the mobile shoe (2), to which a friction element (3) of the mobile shoe is attached and the roller (9).
  • the guiderail (10) runs in the space between the mobile shoe (3) and the fixed shoe (6).
  • the block (1) is protected on the front by a protection plate (11) and a protection plate for the sheets (12).
  • Figure 2 shows the various stages of the catching process and the action of the various elements composing the system.
  • Stage a) shows the roller (9) in its rest position together with the hinged rectangular frame.
  • Stage labelled b) when catching begins the roller (9) moves until it meets the base of the mobile shoe (2), so that the friction element (3) will travel parallel to the guiderail until it meets the guiderail (10), initiating the braking action.
  • roller (9) is concealed between the block (1) and the base of the shoe (2), so that the roller (9) no longer marks the guiderail (10) as it does not exert any braking action on it.
  • the elements effecting the braking action when the elevator is moving upwards must be anchored by an element (a spring, metal strip, ring or the like) that counteracts the force of gravity and stops them from catching each other in the rest position and allows them to effect the braking action without problems.
  • an element a spring, metal strip, ring or the like
  • the invention can be executed within its essence by other embodiments unlike the one given by way of example in the description, which will also be covered by the protection sought. Likewise, it may be constructed in any shape and size and with the most suitable materials.
